U icon instead of E - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

Ok simple and possible stupid question...
All yesterday my phone was displaying the E icon next to my antenna showing that there was the possiblity of connecting to the Edge network... Now I happen to work in a area where 3G is not supported but I live in one where its spotty.
I went home last night and while fooling with the phone I noticed the U icon instead of the E... Note I'm NOT using the MEdia connection either, I know this is just simply stating that 3G is currenty avilable where I am.
Now I'm back at work today and the U icon is still there, so I got to test it and when I connect it connects with a mini E above the antenna bars.... So why does my major network icon never change showing me whats avilable?
I installed the HTC Kaiser Dialer + 3G-Batt Icons for my vp3G rom, so I dont know if maybe thats causing it?
I just signed up for media maxx today so I'll test my media connection when I get home to see if it shows up with a 3G...

It doesn't show you what's available. It shows you how you connected, if you are connected.

Um, no it shows whats avilable because this is showing up when my phone is not connected to the MEdia Net service.
Right from the manual.
The LARGE U an E icons are the ones I'm talking about...
Either way I removed the HTC Kaiser Dialer + 3G-Batt Icons program, and it went back to a E icon
so I think it had something to do with that.

The manual is wrong. I am in a 3.5G area, and my connection icon routinely changes from E to U, even while using it.
You're trying to solve something that is not only not solvable, but is also not a big deal anyway.

GPRS / EDGE Icon

Hello,
Does someone noticed about gprs or edge icon in htc wizard.
When the edge icon is disabled ( i.e In default settings ). It shows G Icon at the top of screen, that is normal. BUT when we press the power button at the top of the device and press it again, The device wakes-up. But the G icon changes to E icon and resets after softreset ( i.e G icon )
Points:
1. G icon changes to E icon when we wakeup the device!
2. Only After softreset it goes to normal. i.e G icon but same probem after wakeup!
I tried all the roms in this site but same problem. Also changed the radio rom.
Please someone check this in your phone
Many Thanks

The GPRS / EDGE Icon 'E' or 'G' changes according to the service available in the area of use.If the Edge sevice is available in some area,it'll automatically change to 'E',otherwise,it'll remain 'G' as default.

Hello,
Ok, but why the icon should change only after I wakeup the device.
Another thing I noticed that:
When I connect to internet via GPRS but it shows as connected to EDGE in brackets when I click on that E icon. I do not have any EDGE connections only GPRS!
Thanks for reply

GPRS icon not visable after wakeup
Hello.
No reply
Just uploaded some screenshots...
After I start/boot my htc wizard it will be like G icon in top of the bar ( i.e screenshot_1 )
After I press power button the device will go to sleep mode and again I press the some button ( i.e power ) the device will wakeup. but the G icon will be conveted to E icon ( i.e screenshot_2 ) that's the problem.
Another thing I noticed that:
I connected to internet ( i.e GPRS ) before going to sleep mode and I clicked on that G icon and it showed as "connected to GPRS). But when it goes to sleep mode and when I waked it and the icon has changed to E icon. And again I clicked on that E icon and it showed "connected to EDGE" instead of showing GPRS.
I have disabled the "EnableDifferGprsEdgeIcon" setting in registry. Plz you also disable this before you test the my problem.
Plz anyone check it and tell me.
Many thanks

GPRS/EDGE is the same thing. gprs is a slower network than edge. it still comes from the same provider. If you notice, in a city you will have EDGE almost always, while in some parts of the country you only have GPRS because they have no need to update towers.
as far as the wizard is concerned I do not believe it is capable of 3G so it will only get EDGE/GPRS.
I tried to use a sim card from ATT but it did not get 3G speeds. My friends phone is also not 3G capable even though it came from ATT.
I'm not sure what your concern is. if you have E vs G it means there is a better network around, but it still comes from the same carrier.
Gprs / Edge
Thanks...
By-the-way. I edited the operator name and given it as cingular. But the my default operator is cellone.
My sim is of BSNL not the at&t.
My problem is that why the icon should change when the mobile goes to sleep mode. After wakeup the icon will be changed ( i.e E icon ) and also my connection details will be changed ( i.e GPRS to EDGE ). This problem only occors upon going to sleep mode and after wakeup.
I tryed all the wm6 and wm6.1 roms in this webiste, all have same thing. But this problem will not occors in WM5. The icon will be G and will not change upon Sleep mode/wakeup.
This problem is only with WM6 & WM6.1.
Many thanks
Srikanth
thats weird.
I sometimes get pissed when im otside of a city and it turns to G. then I feel like I'm in the boonies.
I never saw the issue you are describing. maybe it is your network.
Gprs / Edge
Hi,
OK. I will try with other networks/sim cards.
Many Thanks.

Gprs / Edge
Hello,
OK DONE.
Now the E icon is stable/visible after startup and also at wakeup.
What I did is:
1. Enabled the "EnableDifferGprsEdgeIcon" setting in registry.
2. I Downloaded and installed the GB-SOFT GPRS Tweak app.
3. Opened the software and there was 6 tweaks in page.
4. I ticked on the "Search GPRS [G-E-3G] on start radio" box & rebooted.
5. Now: At the startup of my device, the G icon will not display and only the E icon.
6. And also will not change after wakeup ( Thats stable ).
Ok, now the E icon is stable. So I edited the "EnableDifferGprsEdgeIcon" and given it as 0 to disable it ( i.e To show G icon instead of showing E. )
But without luck. The problem rised again.
I think that, this problem is due to RADIO ROM.
I Tested some of other radio roms also but had no luck. Today morning I also flashed to WM5 offical rom but there is now problem with it ( i.e GPRS Icon is stable ).
Do you know which RADIO Roms is the best and fixes my problem.
I tested these 4 Radio Roms:
1. 02.07.10
2. 02.71.11
3. 02.37.11
4. 02.47.11
Many thanks
Srikanth.K
Try these both,they are considered to be the most stable and with good radio signals :-
Radio Rom 2.19.11
Radio Rom 2.69.11
Same problem
Hello
Tryed these radio rom also as you given but have same problem.
I think that the GPRS will search only when wake up but not at the startup of the device.
May be, there are some tweaks in registry that can be made to search the GPRS on startup of the device or an startup app.
Do anyone know that, GPRS and EDGE are the same sevice or thay are different?
Does anyone know that, any software/app that show where I am ( i.e Network Name, Name of area & etc )?
Many Thanks

What is this grey G icon?

Does anyone know why my "G" icon is sometimes greyed?I mean, no problem it is a G, but why is it on gray background?
I don't see in the user manual anything like that..can it be because of my ROM?
In order to try to save a little battery and because i don't use data connections (wifi only), I set GSM only and deactivated HSDPA, does it have to do with it? Thanks
P.S. i've looked around for some nicer top-bar icons like some people have,but no success:any advice?link?
I'm not completely sure what icon you mean, but I think it is the icon that indicates that a GPRS connection is available (not connected).
To connect to the internet you can have different mobile wireless connections: GPRS (with a G-icon), EDGE (with an E-icon), 3G (with a 3G-icon) and HSDPA (with an H-icon). GPRS being the slowest, HSDPA the fastest, EDGE is not available in all country's and not every connection is available everywhere.

This is out of question, 3G is disabled with NoData.cab and HD Tweak.Furthermore, the name of my gsm operator changes when not in 3G.
@whizz: Thanks for your clear explanation, but as a matter of fact i have 2 "G" icons available (not at the same time), one is the white "square G" on black background (let's call it default, present in the manual) and another one wich is a normal G on grey background..curious..I'm sorry!I wish I could post a screenshot!
EDIT: Here's my guess, I am on a GPRS network but using only GSM..could it be?
Sualc, I can't answer your question but I have wondered the same myself. I also see the greyed out icons sometimes. I haven't bothered researching it becasue it doesn't seem to be a big deal but I would like to know as well.

Thank you for witnessing the same , I was afraid people could think I had hallucinations.Yeah you're right, compared to dozens of other REAL bugs this subject is really not important, just to know...By the way..I just left my bedroom and went down the stairs and now I've got the standard icon!!Tricky, hum?
Greyed out icons mean that type of connection is available, but not in use. It's white when in use.

Implausible - I have my internet connection APN deliberately mis-set to prevent any data connections at all. I still get both normal and greyed out icons from time to time.
Grey G icon means bad or no gprs signal I think. I have somewhere read about it.
Thanks, anyway there is already a signal strenght indicator near the G..but if you read it somewhere no reason to doubt.
I can confirm I get that grey G icon sometimes... it might be a rendering screen bug too....
i get a E for edge and a g for 3g
It may mean a bad signal but the device polls so infrequently as to make it pointless.
Behavior just observed.....
1 - I had an H (HSDPA) with a grey background.
2 - I connect to the internet and get an H with a white background.
3 - I disconnect from the internet to try and a grey background but it is still white.
4 - I walk over to the elevator (bad signal) to try and get a grey background
5 - The data icon goes from H with white background to G with white background
Conclusion ..... non informative and quite meaningless
I am 90% sure that the grey background means bad signal... When it shows in my device, it happens always in areas that reception is poor.
Not unique to the TD2. I get the same from time to time on my Touch HD. Have mildly wondered but never bothered to research.

It happens to me too, but not very often. It´s not about not being connected, because the white icon is there when there´s no connection.
The GPRS signal being too weak seems like a good explanation to me.

I'm afraid the G icon we're talking about is not among the ones lsted there..so until something "official" comes out could we say that "G greyed icon" = "GPRS band selected but not availabe "?

the G is there, the 2nd reply attached with the picture explains
G(dark color) = GPRS available
G(grey color) = GPRS unavailable.

Hide or Remove GPRS / EDGE Icon?

First post, bit of a lurker here. Just upgraded my XDA2 after (how long?).
So, got the touch HD. And I find it has a [E] or an [H] on the taskbar. I've checked previous posts, and the GPRS is disabled, but I really really dislike the icon being there. The XDA2 didn't have it there, although it also supported GPRS. Is there a reg hack, or a tweak, something I can do to hide the icon? I don't care about the connection, its the icon that's bugging me....?
Or is it that I'm asking the wrong question? Is it the case that if I can see the [G] icon, I must be connected to gprs, and so to hide the icon I just need to kill that connection (something i thought I'd already done)?
The G/E/H/3G icon just shows you what is available, doesn't mean you're connected.
It is possible, i had a taskbar on the diamond, called ahen by sunnyin that had no G/3G/H icon
Not 100% sure on this one, but I don't think you can actually get rid of the icon as that is a WM feature to show you what is available (if you're connected to GPRS/EDGE it will show it on the signal bars). However, what you can do is change the icon which 'G' and 'E' to just be black like the background so you won't be able to see it. Hence the actual icon notification will still be there (taking up space) but you won't see it.
I have the same problem. disabled GPRS and any way of my phone accessing 3G or 2G, but there is still an E in a gray square showing up at the top. This happened after I first installed cooked roms. My guess is that other apps are attempting to access 2G, because another problem linked to this was an error message, ""there is a problem connecting to the gprs service in your registered home network warning", which I've since then fixed (but the E problem remains)
Edit: lol I just realized this thread was years old. but if anybody has a solution, please comment

1.66 question.

Hi everyone.
Since upgrading to 1.66, I have noticed something rather annoying and hope someone can provide a solution to fixing it.
When I was on 1.48, the H icon at the top of the screen would always be there. I was effectively connected to the internet all the time, and was able to leave MSN messenger etc open and I'd always be online.
When I upgraded to 1.66, the icon at the top of the screen is always 3G. It only changes to H when I'm actually using the internet. If I open the browser and check out a website, the 3G changes to H and the website begins to load. It changes back to 3G when any internet connectivity is idle.
I can only access the internet when H is displayed, but I want it connected permanently like it was on 1.48.
It's like the phone is disconnecting from the internet when I'm not using the browser. It's not very useful when I need to keep MSN messenger open all day.
Thanks.
It's not disconnected when it says 3G. It simply switches to the slower mode when nothing is being transferred to save resources. As soon as something actually needs to be transferred it goes to H again to get the fastest available speed.

Ah, okay. I can't seem to visit any websites when 3G is displayed though. Perhaps that could be to do with my operator settings or something?
i have had the same problem since installing the sms patches.... i have since hard reset to remove the patch... and testing it now... it is very anoying because it keeps my msn disconnected...
I'm using Dutty's 1.5 (it's a great ROM!) with a 2.07 radio and I've got the same problem..
When it says 3G, nothing seems to come through.. when it changes to H, the webpage starts loading...
Does anyone have a fix to make it not switch back and forth between H and 3G? It gets frustrating because it often takes 1 or 2 seconds to switch between the modes....

Let us know how to you get on because I need this fixed.
My MSN stays connected fine in 3G. Push email works perfect too.
The icons only show the available type of signal.
They don't mean you are connected.
When you do connect by opening an app that uses the appropriate signal then the icon changes to show the signal that you are connected with.
If H is not available in a particular area then it will stay on 3G and if that's not available then G with show.
Hey guys. I'm on my 4th HD2 handset now since upgrading my vodafone contract one month ago. First two handsets had similar probs as allot of you have had, i.e sms not working, alarm not working etc etc. I upgraded to the 1.66 rom when i got my 3rd handset from phones4u. I then started getting the same issues as you just described- internet only profficiently working when H coverage is active. When it goes below that then nothing happens at all. I returned the handset today and got a new one. This one already had the 1.66 Rom update installed and sure enough, had the same internet issues. I started fiddling with settings and changed the band setting from 'auto' to 'WCDMA'. ( just trial and error, so senior members please chime in if i have given bad advise!) This seems to keep the network coverage constantly in H and since changing it several hours ago i have not had any issues.
Start> Settings>Wireless controls>Phone>Band> Change Auto to WCDMA
Give it a go!

Wouldnt that make the phone stick to the 3G/HSDPA/WCDMA band only and cause the phone to have no reception around certain areas that still operate on 2G GSM?
Exact.
I rather tend to do the opposite for that reason if I have trouble (sometimes you're in areas where 3G reception is low and it keeps switching between 3G and EDGE all the time), I'll force EDGE only. It's slower, but at least the connection is constant.
When at work mine fights bewteen 3g and h and both are like 1 bar signals, i'd rather disable both when at work as G is full signal.
Is there a way?

Constant switching between 3G and 3G+, kills internet

Hi everyone,
I have an omnia 7 on contract with Optus here in Australia. I have had it for a few days now and I've found the data connection to be very patchy, even though I have full reception where I live.
I have noticed the connection icon switching between 3G and 3G+ pretty much constantly when I'm using it.
This is basically what is happening as I try it at the moment:
- Icon says 3G.
- Tried to load the Optus website and the icon changed to 3G+ and the progress bar is just hanging there, wont go any further.
- Icon has changed back to 3G, still hanging.
- Try to load again, now it has changed to 3G+ and the site loaded.
- Icon has changed back to 3G.
- Clicked a link on the website and the icon changed to 3G+, page loaded fine.
- Icon changed back to 3G.
- Tried to load the facebook app, "Unable to connect to Facebook. Please try again later.
- Trying to load optuszoo.com.au again, icon says 3G.. just hanging there again.
- Icon has changed to 3G+, still hanging.
- Icon has changed to 3G, still hanging.
Could this be a fault with my phone? I'm in an area of strong reception, it shouldn't have a problem getting a steady 3G+ connection (I used to have a HTC Diamond which always had a strong HSDPA signal). I can only guess that every time it switches from 3G to 3G+ it loses the connection, which stops things from loading & syncing. Is there anything I can try here before I take it back to the store? I do not have the new firmware, and don't particularly want to try messing with it if I have to return it.
Every Omnia 7 has this problem (as far as I'm aware). It's a connectivity bug with Windows Phone, hopefully it will get sorted in the coming update.

I've got the same phone and on the same carrier and I can't say I have experienced these problems. I've had my phone since october last year and its been working flawlessly when there's a good signal.
When it switches between 3G and 3G+(H), it usually just means the download speed is varying between those 2 standards (i think 3G = about 3Mbits/s, and 3G+/H is about 7Mbits/s).
Only thing I can suggest is turn off your phone, make sure your sim is inserted properly as well as battery, and turn it back on.
If you were on a different carrier with your old HTC, it might be Optus' coverage.

I was on Optus previously, I dropped into the optus store yesterday and they had me on the phone with support. We tried my sim in a different phone and determined it's my handset that is the problem. As the poster above you mentioned, it's probably a firmware issue... but I'm not going to risk waiting for the new firmware to come out because I only have another week to be able to get a replacement.
Had such issues but after I changed my Provider my 3G+ signal ist stable.
Hour handset is being 'elevated' to HSDPA when your using your connection.
When its idle, it will drop back to 'standard'
My handset does this, but i am not getting the data issues your experiencing.
In addition, both my old HTC handsets used to do this, tho the icon actually showed [H] for HSDPA (Windows Mobile 6.1 and 6.5)
Hard reset your Omnia And/Or send it off for repair/replace
(I am with Optus too)
I'm having the same problem.
I've got a Samsung Galaxy s on Optus.
Constantly changes from 3G to HSDPA, looses connection every time, very hard to use apps that use the Internet.
Seem's to be an optus problem as this is happening with different types of handsets.
Maybe an option where you can select 3G or HSDPA only is needed, they have a GPRS or 3G only option so i don't see why they cant have this aswell.

Yep I ended up taking it back and getting a replacement, but the replacement has the same problem... so it's either software related or network related.
I can confirm this issue too.
It's REALLY annoying.
Is there any temporary fix? I hate this device for the most part, but I love WP7.
I have less problems when I have the phone's sync set to hourly, then it happens maybe once a month that I can't connect with data.
When I had de sync set to manual I almost daily had to reset the phone to get the data connection back, now its on hourly sync again and no problems in the past week..

I have the exact same issue with my HTC Mozart. The signal constantly keeps changing between 3G and HSDPA when I'm in an area that has stable strong reception.
This causes the same DNS issues as stated in IE in which websites fail to load until you refresh them a number of times.
To me it appears that its an issue with IE and the way WP7 calculates and handles the signal. Can anyone confirm if Microsoft have confirmed that there are issues with IE and the signal and when this will be fixed?
I don't know if in my case it's related to the same problem, but on my operator's network it's mostly E and 3G.
After a few times of checking my email, getting the People Hub updated or surfing once in a while, I don't get a connection anymore, except when connecting via wifi.
This is a very annoying problem and the only way to get it back is turning the device off and on daily basis, sometimes even a few times a day D:
I have the same issue ever since I updated the firmware. At first I thought that it is broken internally but it seems to be a universal problem.
Firmware: 2424.11.2.3
Radio: 2424.11.2.2
bootloader:5.2.1.4
Does anybody want to escalate this issue to MS and Samsung? (I understand that several countries are reporting this)
Same problem - HTC One X on Optus.
My phone seems to spend most of its time deciding whether to use 3G or HSDPA, during which time my webpage downloads stop, I can't connect to facebook ("Connection lost - tap to retry"), I can't search Google, etc. etc.
I wouldn't mind if it got on with the job in the meantime, but while it's flicking backwards & forwards between networks I can't seem to get any data down (or up).
Really, really, really annoying. I didn't notice it on Telstra, but I had a different phone (HTC Desire). From the looks of this thread though it's network-related, not phone-related.
Does anybody have problem while calling someone, and when line establishes, there is only silence and dropped call. I had that problem, and I solved it by forcing phone to use only 3G. To do this, go to Diagnosis, and enter *#2263#, then if you want only 3G enter ''WCDMA Band Preference'' - ''WDCMA All'', or for EDGE ''GSM Band Preference'' - ''GSM All''. Automatic speaks for itself. I use 3G all the time, and no more dropped calls. Maybe this could help with 3G -> 3G+ shifting. Only downside is that when there is no 3G signal, you wont get signal at all.
